Sowell: Clinton's Georgetown Speech on "The Truth"
www.jewishworldreview.com | Nov. 14, 2001 | Dr. Thomas Sowell

Posted on 11/16/2001 1:04:08 PM PST by Mean Daddy

Dr. Sowell takes Klintoon and other elites to the woodshed on the latest round of feel good initiatives. He takes apart the argument that we are being punished for our sins because of slavery (which still exists in some Muslim countries) and our behavior in the Crusades (didn't know Billary was that old!).

Clinton should feel guilty. Bush has accomplished more in one month against terrorists than he or Mrs.X42 did in eight years. Guilt and self-blame are centeral to all liberal thinking -- time to see the Joe Biden wing of American public opinion for what it is -- self-defeating.

Clinton wants us to pay for the education of children in other countries because it is "a lot cheaper than going to war."

This ties into the dominant liberal illusion that education (not further defined) is the answer to all social ills. A number of the hijackers on 9/11 were highly educated, with several apparently holding doctorates.

Actually, the root of the terrorist upsurge is apparently a revival of conservative Muslim schools. If you will, a "Muslim studies" educational system that teaches victimization in almost the same way that "black studies" classes do in this country do.

I can agree that education is indeed much of the answer. However, what is taught and how it is taught is crucial (and seldom debated).

The 'Toon speaks to his one remaining natural constituency, (except for a few million idiot women, who are mostly unmarried, childless, and/or welfare mothers):

Academics, sho cannot admit the truth, because they are blinded by Leftist-Marxist ideology,

--- and they are not not intellectually HONEST enough themselves to face powerful empirical evidence telling them that Clonton is a LIAR and the "Emperor (of Leftist-Marxist myths) has NO CLOTHES"!

I am grateful to Thomas Sowell for his articulation of Clinton's hate speech in Georgetown last week. I have been steaming about that speech ever since I read the text of it. I can't believe that it wasn't big news and no one seems to care (except on this forum). It seems to me that the speech speaks volumes - scary that this guy was at the helm of our wonderful country for 8 years. I truly believe that man did everything he could to destroy our culture and way of life.

Using 10% of Clinton's verbiage, Mr. Sowell skewers Clinton's comments with his usual masterful application of straightforward logic and fact.

"Third World Rulers who live lavishly, build monuments to themselves and stash money in Swiss bank accounts."

This is the cohort to which Clinton speaks, the one that gave him a standing O at the UN. They are brothers under the skin and know each other well. That is why they like him so much, for they see that he hates us as much as they do and he is as corrupt as they.

regards

The reason it is not big news is because 1) the media does not want to draw attention to the boil it helped to create and then nutured every day for eight years, and 2) the people who supported him don't want to be reminded that they he is the guy they supported, and 3) almost everyone else just wants him to go away.

Excellent piece--this is worthy of Rush reading it aloud on his show--hope he does. An exemplary excerpt:

Just for the record, slavery was abolished throughout Western civilization more than a century before it was abolished in the Islamic world -- for it is not completely abolished in the Islamic world to this very moment. But double standards are at the heart of the hustle. Nobody else is going to cough up the money that the hustlers want from the United States.

Mr. Sowell is as much a scholar, statesman, and patriot as ScumBubba is a charlatan, traitor, and lying scumbag.

thought, myself and some on Fox News included, that Clinton was as high as a kite.

I'm sorry I missed this. I've heard so much about it. Would anyone have a link to Klinton's speech or a still photo?

The speech was rambling and he came just short of slurring words...yes, he was "on" something...and the reason he was 45 minutes late, someone was doing the 'black coffee' or some such thing to get him 'sober'.

BUMP

I was unable to hear the speech, but would love to read all the inanities from the delusional megalomaniac still searching for a legacy.
Thaks to anyone who can point me to a URL where it may be found.
